EXC+5 Pentax KX 35mm SLR Film Camera SMC Takumar 55mm f/1.8 Lens JAPAN

£164.38

The Pentax KX is a 35mm SLR camera produced by Asahi Pentax in the mid-1970s, representing one of the final M42 screw mount bodies in the Pentax lineup before the transition to the K bayonet mount. Paired here with the SMC Takumar 55mm f/1.8, it forms a capable and well-matched combination for film photography. The KX operates entirely without batteries for shutter operation, with batteries required only for the TTL light meter. This ensures reliable mechanical shutter function regardless of battery condition — a practical advantage for film shooters. The SMC Takumar 55mm f/1.8 is one of Pentax's most highly regarded standard lenses, featuring Super Multi Coating for improved contrast and flare resistance. The f/1.8 maximum aperture provides strong low-light performance and natural subj.
